S = (τ*t_o)/(640*r^2)
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Storage Coefficient - Storage Coefficient is the volume of water released from storage per unit decline in hydraulic head in the aquifer, per unit area of the aquifer.
Transmissivity - (Measured in Square Meter per Second) - The Transmissivity refers to the measure of how much water can be transmitted horizontally through an aquifer is the product of the hydraulic conductivity of the aquifer and its saturated thickness.
Time at the Point of Intersection - (Measured in Minute) - Time at the Point of Intersection between Straight Line and Zero-drawdown Line.
Distance from Pumping Well - (Measured in Meter) - Distance from Pumping Well to the point where drawdown occurs.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Transmissivity: 1.4 Square Meter per Second --> 1.4 Square Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Time at the Point of Intersection: 120 Minute --> 120 Minute No Conversion Required
